Humans were lucky that it worked out that bigger dogs generally are less mean.

Most wolves are actually terrified of humans and would probably run away if they see you. You should still be careful in areas with wolves though.
Do you know if that's a modern change or if it's always been the case?
I don't know. I heard it in a documentary about coyotes a few years ago.
Maybe, but coyotes are not wolves.
The wolf fact was in the documentary to compare the two. When a coyote and wolf breed, the offspring is bigger than a typical coyote and not as afraid of humans as a typical wolf.
